Quick Review: The House of Tomorrow





This review is going to be short but sweet! The House of Tomorrow by Peter Bognanni is a wonderful book! I totally was not expecting to fall in love with these characters!
The story is fresh and beautifully written. I loved each and every page and was so sad to see it end! Bognanni is definitely one to watch in the future as I can see that he has a TON of talent! I'd definitely recommend this book! That's all I can say!

There are certain things that you really enjoy but can't always spend an arm and a leg on, and concerts and games are one of them! So I consider myself
lucky that I found www.acheapseat.com !!! There are tons of cool concerts and games that I think anyone could get tickets for, and for a steal too! They have
Los Angeles Lakers Tickets for a very decent price! I'm not a game fan but I can definitely appreciate that!

They have tons of venues to pick from when you wanna get Jersey Boys Tickets too! That is if you're into live musicals! I know I would love to catch this show! So you see there are tons of excellent shows, concerts, and plays to choose from!

Oh! And let's not forget the best one! Loads of cheap tickets for the one and the only, Taylor Swift! Yup, they have her shows up and available so if you know anyone that
is in the market to purchase Taylor Swift tickets the click the link and shop away!

Ad: The Magic Warehouse

Okay people, I have to admit. I have always wanted to be a magician! There I said it! I love magic tricks so when I stumbled upon The Magic Warehouse I was tickled pink!
There are tons of amazing magic tricks to look through. I found that there were tons of stuff to buy in regards to magic! It's a veritable pot o' gold if you are into this stuff!

I think one of the best magic trick would have to be the good old fashioned card magic tricks that keep you guessing! Don't you? I mean it's cool to watch and fun! They even take
pity on the novice magician with tons and tons of good beginner magic tricks! They also cater to parties in the Baltimore area (aren't you guys lucky!?) So why don't you check out the Magic
Warehouse
and see if you find anything magically fun!

Quick Review-The Great Hunt




This is the second book in the Wheel Of Time series by Robert Jordan. Rand and his friends are out to find the Horn of Valere, that was stolen by an evil man. I loved how Jordan writes! I love how much more character development we got to see. Each character is woven into the pattern, as it is called, and each plays an integral part in saving the world.

Rand's dilemma is intense. He has a calling but doesn't want to face it. He is definitely a tragic Hero type of character, but it's not overdone. He makes his choices and deals with the consequences. I'm reading this series to be a part of the challenge (look to the right sidebar) and I just cannot wait to delve deeper into this world!

The only problem I had with this was the length. This is an epic tale and the size of the book is HUGE! There were a few slow moments where I thought it could do with a bit of trimming, but that didn't kill the story. I will give this one a 4/5 rating and suggest this series (so far) to anyone that loves a good fantasy story!

New Month!!!

zwani.com myspace graphic comments


March is here! I'm going to pretend that February didn't happen. I've seen other blog owners mention that they had a little bit of a slump last month and I do believe that was my case as well. I didn't get much reading done. This month however things in my personal life seem to be improving drastically!

I have to catch up on some review books and a couple of challenges but I think this month will be a good reading month! I'm ready for action!
